She decided to surrender to the moment. "Wait!" Just as she was about to close the door firmly, Mars, without a moment's hesitation, thrust his hand into the narrow gap. Linda halted the door just in time, her gaze fixed on the minuscule space between the weighty wood and the back of Mars's hand. A surge of fury ignited within her.

"Mars, what on earth do you think you're doing?" The last thing she wanted was to bear the weight of injuring him. Her faith in men had crumbled the day her own husband betrayed her. Initially, witnessing the apparent happiness between Autumn Lopez and Mars had sparked a flicker of hope within her, even a tinge of envy. But upon uncovering the entire narrative, she found herself thoroughly disenchanted. If it weren't for her concern for a wonderful girl like Autumn, who deserved better, she wouldn't have even considered opening her mouth to confront Mars.

She had assumed he would be preoccupied with the task of winning Autumn back, not wasting his time pestering her. Her expression soured. Now, every single aspect of Mars grated on her nerves. "Please, can you help me get in touch with Autumn?" Mars's eyes were filled with desperation as he pleaded, "She won't ignore a call from a business partner. If you reach out, I know she'll answer." "Please, I'm begging you." Linda felt as though she was at the end of her tether, but the sight of his utterly shattered demeanor made her pause. After a moment of internal struggle, she relented.

"Come in." Had it not been for the memory of the genuine connection that Mars and Autumn once shared, she would have never given in. But having endured her own failed marriage, Linda wanted to prevent another woman from making the same mistakes she had. More importantly, Autumn was pregnant. A woman is at her most vulnerable during that period. Linda genuinely liked Autumn and desired a smooth path for her. Above all, she wanted to ensure the baby arrived safely. "I'm only helping you this once. After this, whatever turmoil exists between you two is your own to navigate.

Don't even think about coming back to me for help again, because I won't respond." Mars's face lit up with relief. "Okay, okay! Thank you so much! If this helps us work things out, you'll be our savior. I promise, I'll visit you every holiday!" Linda couldn't help but twist her lips into a sardonic smile. She didn't believe a word he uttered. Autumn had given him everything, and he had failed to appreciate it. What made him think he would remember a favor from someone like her? Those were just hollow words, crafted to placate her.

Linda gestured for Mars to sit wherever he pleased and instructed someone to bring him tea. Then, she retrieved her phone, located Autumn's number, and dialed. Ring... Ring... Ring... The call connected. Mars had been running around all day, his voice hoarse from trying to reach out to people. He seized the steaming tea and began gulping it down to quench his thirst. He didn't even care that it was scalding, downing half the cup in one go. As the phone continued to ring without an answer, his expression inevitably darkened. Is Autumn really that angry? Is she ignoring everyone's calls?

Panic began to creep in. Initially, he had felt a flicker of anger himself, thinking she was overreacting. But as the minutes ticked by without any sign of her, his anger dissipated, leaving only a desperate need to find her. This time, he was resolute. He would build a life with Autumn, he would swear it to her. "Hello?" Just when Mars felt hope slipping away, Autumn's voice resonated through the line. He had never realized how beautiful her voice truly was. Joy surged within him, words already forming on his lips.

But one sharp glance from Linda was like a bucket of ice water splashed over him, jolting him back to reality. He didn't dare utter a sound, merely staring at Linda with wide, pleading eyes. He looked almost pitiful. "Autumn? It's Linda." Linda intervened, preventing Mars from speaking, and offered a warm greeting herself. Upon hearing Linda's voice, Autumn released a quiet, almost imperceptible sigh of relief. "Linda! It's been a while. How have you been?" When Autumn noticed Linda's name flashing on her screen, her heart skipped a beat.

Her first thought was that Mars couldn't find her and had resorted to asking others for assistance. But as soon as she answered, she dismissed the notion. A guy like Mars? Would he truly get that desperate? Autumn couldn't help but scoff internally. His heart is a VIP list, and while it might be filled with other names, mine was never on it. Upon hearing Linda's voice, any lingering hope evaporated entirely. And with it came a profound sense of relief. Indeed, even if Mars were given an opportunity, he wouldn't know how to seize it. Their divorce was inevitable. There was no turning back now.

"I'm doing great. Mars texted me earlier, and it made me realize it's been a while since we've talked, so I thought I'd give you a call." Linda tactfully mentioned Mars without revealing that he was right there beside her. Autumn responded with a flat "Oh," refusing to take the bait. Mars, growing increasingly anxious, was on the verge of speaking, but Linda swiftly cut him off, speaking quickly, "And you? How have you been lately?" "I'm doing great, too." With the pleasantries out of the way, both women understood that continuing the conversation was futile.

Linda sensed the hint and, after exchanging a few more empty courtesies, concluded the call. As soon as Linda set her phone down, Mars sprang to his feet. "Why didn't you let me talk to her?" He was convinced that if he had uttered just one word, Autumn wouldn't be hiding from him any longer. Linda saw right through his desperation and let out a sudden, cold laugh. "You still don't comprehend, do you?" "If she wanted to talk to you, she wouldn't have answered my call." The words struck Mars like a blunt object, draining all color from his face. Linda's expression hardened, turning to ice.

"Alright, you can leave now. And don't come back here." She ushered him to the door with no trace of compassion. Mars's face burned with humiliation. He wanted to voice something, but the words failed him. "Thank you," he finally managed to choke out as he reached the door. Linda watched him depart, then slammed the door shut with a resounding bang and let out a derisive snort. "These pathetic scumbags. They only learn to value what they had after it's gone. Too bad for him.

A woman with Autumn's spirit will never look back once she's been hurt." Linda's mocking gaze gradually transformed into a steely resolve. She had swallowed her pride and compromised for so many years that she had almost forgotten who she used to be. In the early days, she had mirrored Autumn, helping her husband build his empire from the ground up. But after he found success, his heart began to stray. She had endured it all for the sake of her family, even trying to convince herself that if she could just stop loving him, the pain would dissipate. But a heart is made of flesh and blood.

How could it not ache? The deep crease between Linda's brows slowly softened. If a pregnant woman like Autumn could summon that kind of courage, why couldn't she? Was her life truly over without a man? It was as if someone had lifted the fog from before her eyes. Suddenly, everything became crystal clear. She felt rejuvenated, and with a surge of joy, she grabbed her phone and sent a text to Autumn. Conclusion In the aftermath of her confrontation with Mars, Linda experienced a profound transformation.

The weight of her past failures and the betrayal she had endured began to lift, revealing a newfound clarity that had long eluded her. As she slammed the door behind Mars, she realized that her worth was not defined by the men who had failed her but by the strength she possessed within. The mockery she initially felt towards Mars morphed into a steely resolve; she was no longer willing to be a passive participant in her own life. Instead, she embraced the courage that Autumn had demonstrated, recognizing that her own happiness and peace were within her grasp.

With a surge of empowerment, Linda reached for her phone, ready to reconnect with Autumn and extend her support. This simple act symbolized a shift in her narrative, one where she would no longer allow the shadows of her past to dictate her future. In reaching out to Autumn, she not only sought to uplift another woman but also to reclaim her own voice. No longer shackled by the fear of vulnerability or rejection, Linda stepped boldly into the light of possibility, determined to forge a path toward healing and self-discovery.
